Should is a modal verb.

After Should you use the base form of the infinitive (= verb without To e.g. Go instead of To Go)

Should + Verb (base form of infinitive)

e.g. You should go now (do not say: You should to go now.)

SHOULD

1. To give advice, a recommendation or a suggestion

This is to say that it is the right thing to do or the correct thing.

 Does your tooth still hurt? You should make an appointment with the dentist.
 I think you should study for the test so that you don't fail.
 Your hair is too long. You should get a haircut.
 You really should go to the new restaurant on Main Street.

Expresses an obligation that is not as strong as Must.

Sometimes Should is used instead of Must to make rules, orders or instructions sound more polite. This may appear
more frequently on formal notices or on information sheets.
 On hearing the fire alarm, hotel guests should leave their room immediately.
 Passengers should check in at least 2 hours before departure time.
 You should never lie to your doctor.
 You should pay more attention in class.
 You should be at work before 9.

Shouldn't

We use shouldn't to advise not to do something, usually because it is bad or wrong to do.

 You shouldn't throw your litter onto the street.


 We shouldn't leave without saying goodbye.
 He shouldn't play with those wires if he doesn't know what he is doing.

1. To give advice, a recommendation or a suggestion

This is to say that it is the right thing to do or the correct thing.

 You should see the new Star Wars movie. It’s great!
 He should go to the dentist if his tooth still hurts.
 The test is next week. We should study for it now.
 You should try that new restaurant on Main Street.

Shouldn’t

The negative of should is shouldn’t or should not.


We almost always use the contraction shouldn’t in spoken English.

We use shouldn’t to advise not to do something, usually because it is bad or the wrong thing to do.

 You shouldn’t eat that dessert if you are sick.

This is my recommendation not to do something, not to eat that dessert.

 She shouldn’t buy that dress, it’s too big for her.
 You look tired. You shouldn’t work so much.
 He shouldn’t talk to his boss like that.

Notice how all of these sentences are about a recommendation or advice NOT to do something.

Think + should

We do not use: I think + shouldn’t.


We use: I DON’T think + should.

 I think you shouldn’t go there. (NOT correct)

This is NOT correct because we don’t have the negative shouldn’t after I think.

Instead we make the verb THINK negative and say:


 I don’t think you should go there. (Correct)

A couple more examples:

 I don’t think he should eat that.


 I don’t think we should start yet.

Should in Questions

We use should in questions when we want advice, a recommendation, or a suggestion.

Let’s look at this affirmative sentence:

 I should go now.

How can we change this to a question?


We change the order of the modal verb should with the subject.
So the question becomes:

 Should I go now?

A couple more examples…

 Should I wear the green shirt? (I am asking for your advice or recommendation)

We can also have the W words like What, When, Why, etc. before the modal verb.

 What should we do now? (What do you suggest?)

Descriptive adjectives describe/modify a noun or noun phrase

an adjective that ascribes to its noun the value of an attribute of that noun (e.g., `a nervous person' or `a musical speaking
voice')

imperative
A form of a verb or a construction that is used to express a command.

Form of the imperative

The Imperative form is the same as the ''bare infinitive'':

Affirmative form (base form of the verb): Wait!

Negative short form (Don't + base form): Don't wait!

Emphatic form (Do + base form): Do wait a moment!


Addressing someone (e.g. pronoun + base form): You wait here!

Imperative + question tag: Wait here, will you?

Imperatives joined by and: Go and play outside.

Some common uses of the Imperative

We use the Imperative for direct orders and suggestions and also for a variety of other purposes. Stress and intonation,
gesture, facial expression, and, above all, situation and context, indicate whether the use of this form is friendly, abrupt, angry,
impatient, persuasive, etc. The negative form is usually expressed by Don't. The full form (Do not) is used mainly in public
notices. Here are some common uses:

1. Direct commands, requests, suggestions:

 Follow me. Shut the door (please). Don't worry!

2. Warnings:

 Look out! There's a bus! Don't panic!

3. Directions:

 Take the 2nd turning on the left and then turn right.

4. Instructions:

 Use a moderate oven and bake for 20 minutes.

5. Prohibitions (in e.g. public notices):

 Keep off the grass! Do not feed the animals!

6. Advice (especially after always and never):

 Always answer when you're spoken to! Never speak to strangers!

7. Invitations:

 Come and have dinner with us soon.

8. Offers:

 Help yourself. Have a biscuit.

9. Expressing rudeness:

 Shut up! Push off!

Uses of the Imperative with 'do'


We use do (always stressed) before the Imperative when we particularly wish to emphasize what we are saying: e.g.

- when we wish to be polite:

 Do have another cup of coffee.

- or when we wish to express impatience:

 Do stop talking!

- or when we wish to persuade:

 Do help me with this maths problem.

In response to requests for permission, offers, etc. do and don't can be used in place of a full Imperative:

 May/Shall I switch the light off? - Yes, do. No, don't.

The use of the imperative to address particular people

The imperative, e.g. Wait here!, might be addressed to one person or several people: you is implied. However, we can get the
attention of the person or people spoken to in the following ways:

1. You + imperative:

 You wait here for a moment.

Intonation and stress are important. If, in the above example, you is unstressed, the sentence means 'this is where you wait'. If
it is stressed, it means 'this is what I want you to do'. When you is stressed, it might also convey anger, hostility or rudeness:

 'You mind your own business!


 'You try teaching 40 noisy children five days a week!
 Don't (not you) is stressed in the negative:
 'Don't you speak to me like that!

2. You + name(s) or name(s) + you:

 You wait here, Jim, and Mary, you wait there.

3. Imperative + name or name + Imperative:

 Drink up your milk, Sally! Sally, drink up your milk!

4. Imperative + reflexive:

 Enjoy yourself. Behave yourself.

5. We can use words like everybody, someone with the Imperative when we are talking to groups of people:

 Everyone keep quiet! Keep still everybody!


 Nobody say a word! Somebody answer the phone please.
Any compounds are used after negative commands:

 Don't say a word anybody! Don't anybody say a word!

used to describe the form of a verb that is usually used for giving orders:

In the phrase "Leave him alone!", the verb "leave" is in the imperative form.

"Stop!," "Come here!," and "Look out!" are all examples of the imperative form. You can use the imperative
form to give an order, a warning, or some advice.

To form the imperative, use the infinitive form of the verb without "to." To make a negative imperative, put "do not"
or "don't" in front of the verb, as in, "Don't touch that!"

You can include yourself in the imperative by adding "Let's," as in, "Let's go for a swim."

If you want to be more polite when using an imperative, just add "please." For example, "Please, leave me alone.
I'm trying to learn English!"

We use imperative clauses when we want to tell someone to do something (most commonly for advice, suggestions,
requests, commands, orders or instructions).

We can use them to tell people to do or not to do things. They usually don’t have a subject – they are addressed to
the listener or listeners, who the speaker understands to be the subject. We use the base form of the verb:

Have fun.

Enjoy your meal.

Stop talking and open your books.

Don’t be late.

Warning:

We use the imperative carefully. It is a very direct form and we don’t generally use it to make requests or commands
or to give instructions.
